Hi.

The company I'm working for is about to migrate to .NET and I'm
participating in the projectgroup responsible for this. One of the
argumements for going .NET, we were told, is that MS is not supporting
VB6 anymore within a couple of years. Does anyone now if this is a true
,and if - a link for som documentation.

Regards - Jan D

VB6 will have regular support until end of March 2005, and extended
support for three more years after that.

VB5 is unsupported as of a few days ago.
